	Trevor Brooking - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sir Trevor David Brooking, CBE (born 1948 in Barking) is a football player turned manager, pundit and administrator.
		Brooking was one of the most intelligent and cerebral footballers of his generation (he left Ilford County High School with 11 O-levels and 2 A-levels), and had a very clean disciplinary record.
		Brooking was Chair of the Eastern Region Council for Sport and Recreation from 1987 until 1997, and between 1999 and 2002 he was chairman of Sport England.

	Football \| Interview - Trevor Brooking
		Brooking describes his work at the FA as being driven by a desire to bridge the chasm between international and grass-roots football through a systematic upgrading of coaching in the game's lower tiers.
		Brooking nods with interest at the fact that Eriksson is paid almost 10 times the salary of Jacques Santini, the coach of France, probably the best team in Europe and England's opening opponents in Euro 2004.
		Brooking concedes that the presence of David Dein, Arsenal's vice-chairman, on FA committees could be interpreted as a conflict of interest.

	ESPN.com Soccernet England: News - Brooking takes West Ham directorship
		Brooking, one of the Upton Park club's favourite sons, will divide his time between the new job and his duties as chairman of Sport England, plus his role as a BBC football expert.
		Brooking considers it an honour to be the first former player in the club's history to be invited on to the board.
		Brooking remains a true gentleman but to suggest he will be merely an Upton Park figurehead or a Roeder watchdog is to underestimate him by some distance.

	The Scotsman - Sport - Brooking in charge as Hammers sack Roeder (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		TREVOR Brooking has been installed by bookmakers as the favourite to become permanent manager of West Ham, after the London club sacked Glenn Roeder last night, just two months after he had recovered from surgery to remove a brain tumour.
		Hammers director Brooking has again taken over as caretaker-manager, filling the same role he did last season when Roeder was in hospital, and the former England star is 5-4 to be handed the job officially.
		Trevor Brooking will once again act as caretaker manager until such time as a permanent successor is appointed.

		Former West Ham striker Tony Cottee has backed the appointment of Trevor Brooking as caretaker manager of the club, believing it was right to choose a short-term replacement for Glenn Roeder from within.
		Brooking - a director of the club and a former star midfielder - will take over for the final three games of the season while Roeder remains in hospital after collapsing in the wake of Monday's 1-0 win over Middlesbrough.
		And Cottee hailed the choice of Brooking as the ``sensible option'', although he has never been involved in management before, having worked for a number of years as a BBC television pundit.

	icBirmingham - Time to end double vision
		The appointment of Trevor Brooking to oversee the development of football in this country is long overdue and needs to be commended.
		Trevor's reward for having been a peerless footballer with a wonderfully equable temperament would be to spend a lot of time either in mid-air or on the floor, courtesy of unscrupulous opponents who got to him as soon as they could.
		Trevor Brooking's appointment as the FA's director of footballing development should carry both those hallmarks.

		Allardyce insists that Brooking does not have the qualifications to hold such a position and he also claims he is echoing the sentiments of the other Premiership managers.
		Allardyce added: All the FA has said is that Trevor's job is split into three roles and that the technical side is only a third of his mandate.
		"Trevor has more than one role to play and the job was held on a full-time basis by Howard Wilkinson, who made huge improvements at grass roots and youth level, technically, and in introducing basic standards in terms of facilities and coaching qualifications," Allardyce said.
